Games you dont play, keep or sell??

Do you guys mainly only keep games you still will play again eventually, or trade them in or sell them?? I have quite a few games that I beat and loved playing at the time but havent played in awhile and cant picture myself ever playing again with new games always coming out I rather play. So now i'm thinking of trading them in or selling them but I wont get anything close to what I paid for them. So I dont know if its better just to keep them just to have an impressive library of games that I will never play again. Or is it better to just trade them in even if I will only get a couple bucks? Anyways I know I should decide this myself but just curious what some of you guys do... thanks

Back in the time i selled them (the gen b4 this 1)

I will never sell or trade my games anymore i know there will be a time that i want to play my old games back.

yeah when I was younger almost all I played was sports game. I would get the new one every year for almost every sport. But as I got older I realized what a rip off it is to do that IMO. I also love the Gears series and wont get rid of those games ever... But I also have COD MW 1 and 2, also World at War, RB6 Vegas 1 and 2, and Bad Company 1 and 2, and I have Black Ops pre ordered and I'm thinking how many shooter games do I really need?? I cant see myself ever coming back to some of these games. So thats what made me think of what I should do

I see no point in selling games because I wont get what they are worth, I will at some point in the future want to replay them and I'm never desperate enough to get such a small amount of money.

You must have only tried selling one game ONCE. As much as people dis it, Gamespot with Edge card will give a ton of cash. Last time I sold games was about a year or so ago, but I made 200 bucks once, with really old games, were the newer ones were Gears 2. Just sell AAA titles, no matter how old with an edge card and you'll get AT LEAST 25 bucks.

I hate selling games because I buy add ons. And I have Modern Warfare 2 but I don't play it cause I just got bored of it and got Reach. So I'm debating if I should sell it or keep it

Gamestop just scams kids and people that have no idea what they are doing. Paying $60+ and getting any where from $1 to $25 depending how long you wait is stupid. They do not give you "a ton of cash" I don't get how people can be so desperate for such a small amount of money...Darkslayer16

I keep games for two reasons;

If I know I will replay it, or if I just can't bring myself to get rid of it.

It's not the company that's stupid if a person is willing to pay $60 and then trade it in for $25. The promotions they run bump up the values to respectable numbers. And if you don't want to trade in to Gamestop or Amazon, then you can deal with eBay.

Really depends on the game. If I really disliked it I usually will sell it or keep it so I can do EB games' trade 3 get one program. I have 3 games for that already now that I may trade in. I typically will keep games I happened to enjoy even if I know I won't play it again, just in case I have a small desire to give it another go later down the future, or if it becomes a nostalgia/novelty thing for me.

I keep most of my games; however, I will sell my games to Gamestop etc., on occasion as well. There are simply some games, that I know I will never play again. Not to mention those bargain buy games you "don't" want to play again. ;) So why not sell them? For the most part, I am a collector and love to see my collection grow, but there are exceptions.

I honestly feel it's a personal preference. What I or anyone else does with their games is up to them. Do what you want. Personally, I still have every game I've ever bought for any system except for 2 (which were stolen from me). I may never play them again, especially the ones that I have full gs on and are super old. But then again, I might. I like having them for the memories/nostalgia. And I sometimes go back and play a little bit of a game before a sequal, like I did with bioshock. But hey, if you wanna trade them in a get a couple bucks, that's totally on you. You gotta live with the decision, not us :)

Sell them but keep in mind as soon as you sell them a week on from them you a gonna get an urge to play those games again and be like crap why did i sell them. So really only sell them if they suck and your never gonna play them again

i usually keep most of my games. However after a period of 3 years i will look at the games that i kno i will never play again and trade those in

I keep only the ones i will re-play again and liked them the most. I had a collection of about 58 games which got down to 30 over the weekend. Hey, i made close to 160 bucks on eBay, so i am not complaining...

Never sold or traded a game.

Back when I was a kid I used to sell my PS2 games when my parents didn't buy me new games (sold lots of games just to get GTA: SA lol). But now I rarely do.H-Revolver

nope i usually trade em in. sometimes i do regret selling a game... (borderlands and batman AA, but i had 1000 GS on each!)

but i love consolidating my collection to the few games i really enjoy playing, its hard to worry about a collection when u have a work a lot.

I almost always sell my games to Gamestop. I only keep the ones that I could see myself playing long-term or have no re-sell value.

I will keep them because i'm sure i'll be playing them again in future.

I used to sell all of my old games, but I don't anymore. I have had numerous regrets of selling certain games, and I've even gone back and bought the platinum editions of some games so that I could play them again. Most of the time the trade in value just isn't good enough.

Even if I have all of the achievements I won't even trade them in. I still have Lego Harry Potter in my collection even though I have all of the achievements and haven't played it for roughly two months, but I know that I'm going to have a day one day down the road where I want to pop it in and play it again.

I'keep mine. Too many times I've traded games and regretted it later. The only games I trade now are sports games.

And also, the trade value sucks!

Sell it on ebay.

I keep the ones that are not worth much, but if i buy a new game for full price and finish playing it in a week or so i resell it back for most of what i paid then get another game.

Beat halo reach and got 1000g in a few weeks and sold it back for $51. If i had really liked the multi-player i would have kept it but it wasn't for me so to amazon it went. Did this same scenario for many games. Even if i don't make back what i paid its better to cash it in for high value before it drops down to nothing. Lately the price of games fall so fast.

To be honest i'd never sell any of my games .. that's about 55$ loss XD ?

each game i bought, i played it, had some fun with it than took a break and new games came out so i didn't have much time to play these single player games i have .. and i mainly spend my time on multi so ;x ..

Never tried trading them actually but i won't because i'll get all my achievements back first on my new xbl account so untill than, i ain't dropping those games off my list .

I would like to keep all my games, because at one point I will want to play them again even if I remember why I stopped playing them. But it is nice to have a collection and have something else to play and all genres. If I really need the money though and want a new game that will be better I will sell them for a good price so I really only have to pay about $15 for the newest game.

Used to keep all my games when I was younger -now Isell or trade in most of them, justkeep a few 'special games' like Mass Effect & Bioshock -sort of a pride thing. But, just sold a load of PS2 games a couple of months back for tuppence after realising they'd just been sat in my mums house collecting dust for years -including one of my favourite games ever; Final Fantasy X, for only a few quid, but seeing as I was never ever going to play it again, getting anything at all from it was above 'value' innit.

Rarely ever buy games on release date anyway - most of my games tend to be second hand - so I suppose ye, I trade my games in because I couldn't play even half as many games if other people didn't do so also.
